i.am.masquerader Lyrics

I'm a Masquerader

Acting up as if I'm on some shit

Procrastinator

Waking up nothing more I slip

There's no swaying me, no way to sleep

The dreams that I'm missing

I'm rib-caged

Lungs can't breathe out

I'm vein-chained

Tied to my skin

Wannabe creator

Time approaching danger

Gotta be quick on the draw one more tick and the floor will give way

A thin ice that I break

My mistake double take, I'm opaque in the wake of a great plague

Too late to wait, no momentary hesitate, I see the fall, I see the grace but I'm

I'm rib-caged

Lungs can't breathe out

I'm vein-chained

Tied to my skin

I'm in a stationary state, this masquerade, It makes me weary sets my mind rotate

Into a white tomb, a bathroom, marble slate, a statue showing cracks soon

That shield ain't shit, not gonna save you

These days a reflection gonna stay true

As i catch a glimpse of mine

The white lies turn to black flies that swarm my mind, to hide from the hot fires in cold eyes

Despite the light that I always used to find in this

Fuck I never called for this, I falled for this

Like tons of bricks I hit and break my swollen fists against

This mask this counterfeit I've stitched, to my face I've never once been shown it
